IoS Backup

When starting a backup, I don't understand why the "create backup" command is labelled "move." I've never seen anything like that.

And why is there no "success" message after a backup completes?  There is no way to tell that you completed it unless you go to the folder and look for it.

I'll see what we can do, however the "move" screen is handled by iOS Document Picker not UD Mobile.  UD Mobile creates a backup file then data transfer is handled by iOS when using the iOS Document Picker. It is possible, especially if transferring to iCloud, that the file is not moved immediately and is queued.  I have not seen this behavior, but Apple's Documentation says it may happen.  UD Mobile uses the iOS Document Picker, instead of direct iCloud access, which removes the need for the app to have direct access to your iCloud account.

So I'm guessing the "move" label makes sense as the file is created then moved in the background. On Android the action (notification) bar shows a downloading when moving using the system provided Document Picker, maybe we could  request Apple implement a similar feature.
